archival find #11: kid shenanigans
(I didn’t publish this in round barn)
from the back of a comic book my brother
ordered a fake dog-poo my grama had an
ill-tempered rat terrier bounce none of us kids
liked bounce though he did his job well craig
put the item on a couch in the big house (we
lived in the little house) grama spotted it picked
it up with a newspaper threw it out she smacked
bounce with the broom, threw him out too it was
all most satisfactory my brother studied the
comic book again ordered a whoopee cushion
since a lot of farm hands eat at the big house)
